Visual arts, Physics & chemistry

In the exhibition "Geometry of Light, " Franklin Bault's imagination is fueled by physics and chemistry.

Light, the structure of atoms, and even that of molecules are all subjects that infuse this artistic proposal presented at the Richter Library.

In this exhibition, the properties of light resonate with those of color. Through his sculptures, or more precisely, his assemblages, the artist explores scientific hypotheses about the structure of atoms, as summarized in Mendeleev's periodic table.

This exhibition is the result of exchanges with chemists, cultural project managers and their teams, technicians, and gallery owners.
It is also a dialogue with a place: the University Library.

Open to all, this exhibition also provides an opportunity to engage with audiences around science, sculpture, painting, and, of course, installation art.
